Simplify p^2 over p^6
PLEASE HELP ME IM GONNA FAIL MY TEST SO HARDDD

1/p^4

Step-by-step explanation:

1/p^4

Step-by-step explanation:

OK SO TO DO THIS , WHEN YOU DIVIDE INDICIES LIKE

P^2/P^6, YOU BASICALLY MINUS THE POWERS (THEY CANCEL OUT)

so if you have 2 on the top and 6 on the bottom, then you can cancel out the two on the top with 2 on the bottom. If you do that, then you will be left with 4 on the bottom since youve cancelled two of them out, so

answer would be

1/p^4

note: when u cancel it out, it doesnt become 0, but it becomes one

(for future reference, its the opposite for multiplying, if it was like P^2 multiplied by p^6, then the answer would be p^8) so the rule is , you would add the powers if its multiplication

if you need , reply with more info. u.
